Chapter 33 - Drug Disturbance

Translated by Luxican

A few days later, in the early morning, the first rays of morning light trickled through the uneven tiles, of  the largest medicine shop, Baicaopu in Tai Shang Town.

"Bang-bang-" 

A series of knocks broke the morning silence of the town.

At this time, Ding Mao, the owner of that Herbal Medicine Shop, hadn't gotten up yet. The sleepy-eyed man opened the door reluctantly, and grumbled. Which dog, dared to disturb his dreams?

A few disheveled and embarrassed looking drugstore owner stood, outside the door.

At a glance, they were the drugstore owners of several major shops in Tai Shang Town. 

Why were these big guys in such a rush so early in the morning?

"Come on, get out here Boss Ding, " the owner of Baicaopu (Herb Shop) was the younger brother of the village head of Huo Yan Village, Ding Mao, and it was the elder brother of Ding Mao who injured the village head that time.

The two brothers monopolized the sales of the local hemostatic flowers in Tai Shang Town, relying on the resources of Huo Yan Village and the status of Ding Mao.

It was these two brothers who let the prize of the hemostatic flowers of  Jiao Ye Village be halved,  and framed the villagers of buying the hemostatic agent outside.

They united the entire pharmacy community in Tai Shang Town at the cost of one hundred silver coins per month to suppress Jiao Ye Village, they also used physical force to get their way.

Only a few days earlier, the village chief of Jiao Ye Village was seriously injured and carried back to Jiao Ye Village. And the two brothers went to a restaurant in the town to celebrate.

They all thought that without the help of the dual-element magician, Jiao Ye Village would sooner or later collapse.

" Boss Ding, something bad happened. Some people give  hemostatic agent away for free in the largest restaurant of the city." 

The price of hemostatic agents were several times higher than that of the hemostatic flower, and it can be said to be the main income of most drugstores in the town.

The restaurant in the town was the place with the largest flow of people. There would also always be some mercenaries who passed through the town of Tai Shang  on that way.

And right now, some people  gave hemostatic agents away for free in this restaurants, and these hemostatic agents were also  much better than the agents sold in the drugstores.

The mercenaries and merchants immediately changed to these agents. In the past few days, the hemostatic agents in the drugstores had been completely ignored by them.

" If this is true, does anyone know who the person is who started this? Not just anyone can make such a large amount of hemostatic agent..." Ding Mao was a savvy businessman. his words calmed the several drugstore owners down. And he secretly called his servant to inform his elder brother.

" There is no need to check, they are distributing  the hemostatic agent of Jiao Ye Village, " a drugstore owner admitted reluctantly.

His pharmacy was a century-old shop in the Tai Shang Town. The pharmacist of his shop was also  very experienced. The last time the hemostatic agent of Jiao Ye Village was brought out, that old pharmacist was amazed on the spot. 

So this time several of the pharmacy bosses made their shop assistants dress-up as merchants, mix in the crowd, and let them get the hemostatic agent. 

When  the owners saw it they immediately recognized it as the Jiao Ye Village's hemostatic agent.

" Didn't the old guy of Jiao Ye Village die yet ?" Ding Mao felt a little strange.

At this time, Ding Fa rushed over with the wizard who helped out the last time.

Ding Lei's whereabouts were still unknown. And Ding Fa wanted to  settle the debt with Jiao Ye Village. At this time he heard that Jiao Ye Village was selling hemostatic agent in the town. He started to laugh somberly : " This time they won't get a way."

"Brother you shouldn't act recklessly. After all, in the Great Zhou Empire, it's illegal to kill civilians in cities and towns." 

The laws of Wu Ji Continent were rather unique. For example people with magical skills and combat skills couldn't arbitrarily attack civilians in cities and towns.

But magician and warriors could, as long as they did not involve ordinary people, engage in private fights.

The purpose of that was to ensure the safety of civilians, but the national law wouldn't interfere in the wild world of  magicians and warriors, even if there would be casualties caused by private fighting. 

"Do you think I'm just a warrior with well-developed limbs but no brain? I know  the Great Zhou Empire's regulations. Brother, sometimes you don't need to do the killing yourself. Do you know the rules of drugstores? Only magicians and medicine practitioners who have a qualification certificate of the Magic Temple can sell drugs. Offenders will be detained or exiled."

Several drugstore owners suddenly realized.

It was a good idea to  kill people with a borrowed hand, this time Jiao Ye Village was dead.

***

In a restaurant in the town of Tai Shang, Yun Sheng and many villagers of Jiao Ye Village had  rented two rooms as a temporary place to give out hemostatic agents.

Yun Sheng's idea was very simple. The quality of the hemostatic agent wasn't  determined by the pharmacist alone .  What mattered was the user.

Considering this she had come up with the idea of free medicine. Once the recipe for the hemostatic agent was formulated, it  also wasn't difficult to produce.

Jiao Ye Village  had a large amount of hemostatic flowers. In a few days, Yun Sheng, led the villagers to make nearly a thousand bottles of hemostatic agents.

A few days later, the first mercenaries already obtained their agent.

The people who used the agent hurried over the next day, 50 or 60 merchants and mercenaries already took their agents early in the morning , they were quite popular.

Even at noon the villagers and Yun Sheng were still very busy.

A You Shang dressed as merchant came forward and asked : " Excuse me, are these hemostatic agents here for free?"

" Yes, each person can get a bottle of hemostatic agent a day," this was unexpected, as well as the  loli of five or six years old who said it.

The  little  girl was very beautiful, with two dimples in her cheek. It was Yun Sheng.

Yun Sheng gave him the bottle of  hemostatic agent.

The pharmacist took the bottle of hemostatic agent and smelled it under his nose, the doubts that had originally gathered in his eyes immediately dispersed.

The quality of this bottle was similar to the ones of the medicine association, but it was free. Were there powerful pharmacists hidden in this remote mountain village?

You Shang thought for a while, and Zhen Sheng(another shopkeeper) asked, " Little girl, was this hemostatic agent made by your master?"

At Yun Sheng's age, she could at best be a medicine boy. You Shang also took it as granted for her medicine master to have made it.

" This medicine was..." Yun Sheng was about to explain.

But suddenly there were sounds of footsteps outside the restaurant 's door, and a group of local defenders wearing armor broke into the restaurant.

The person who led them  looked fierce, he had the intention  to smash all the hemostatic agents.
